  Re: New Star Wars Stuff
 
(...) [added lugnet.starwars] And Lego's Millennium Falcon, albeit in shadow. And who is it underneath Luke's lightsabre? Uncle Owen? There don't seem to be any new E1 sets, as rumoured. :: paul (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: New Star Wars Stuff
 
(...) The minifig under the lightsaber appears to be Han Solo. I'm really amazed by these sets, even with the small size of the pictures. <speculation> The Falcon seems pretty hefty. The front mandibles look to be the new x-wing style wings with (...) (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: New Star Wars Stuff
 
(...) I wouldn't say that. If TLG was to produce the Millenium Falcon in it's proper size, it would be a far too large set to sell. (Ok, so I know that a lot of people around here would buy it, but for most kids it would be too large.) LEGO usually (...) (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) That would have been an unforgivable error were it not for the fact I like Lego more than Star Wars. Whoops. Maybe I should go back to lurking here and dreaming of grey bricks.... (...) same here :: paul (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: New Star Wars Stuff
 
(...) I'd have to agree... also, bear in mind that a Falcon the size of an X-Wing is still a lot bigger than the X-Wing just in terms of pieces, etc., since it's a lot more bulky, and doesn't have real 'wings' or a thin body... But usually, the toy (...) (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) From what I can tell, the Gungan Sub is *WAY* bigger than it "should" be. eric (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: New Star Wars Stuff
 
(...) Yes, and the cockpit is one part, not three distinct ones. Good for parts, poor representation of what it was in the movie. :( (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: New Star Wars Stuff
 
(...) I don't think I would say that. The Gungan Sub is terribly misconfigured as to the version in the Movie which had all 3 characters in one compartment with 2 "Cargo compartments" on either side. I personally think that this model was the 2nd (...) (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: New Star Wars Stuff
 
(...) While that is of course true, it still looks ousized to me. If you take a standard minifig as being ~6 feet tall, and look at how big the model is, and compare it to the sketches in the Episode One Amazing Cut-Aways book... it's huge. Roughly (...)

(...) The mini-fig under Luke's lightsabre is most likely Capt. Solo. Steve (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.starwars)
